StreetMeasOnsumer3008Fri, 11 Dec 2009 19:18:21 +0000http://midtownlunch.com/?p=11682#comment-226631Just finished my Shendy's lamb/chicken w. yellow rice. Same meats (except they have bits of pepper and onions in their meats), same white sauce and same great hot sauce! The yellow rice is the same too BUT they offer white rice also. I might have to go back to try it with white rice.
I made the mistake of asking for extra hot sauce and they left me with a bigger puddle instead of the 53/6 guys who draw lines of it. No biggie. I'll just anger the tiolet later.
There was virtually no line when I went to Shendy's at 1:15pm as I got to order right away. On the way back, I decided to loop around and take a look at 53/6's lunch line and it was about 15 people deep. IN THE COLD! IJust finished my Shendy’s lamb/chicken w. yellow rice.

Is that some sort of special smokin' technique, or a good Texas barbecue sauce or something?
I tried to punch it up on GOGGLE, but it wouldn't work.Darn, I would REALLY love to join in on this post, but I don’t even have a CLUE what ‘Halal’ means.

Hate to say it, but you guys who were going Shendy's after multiple reports of their participation in that stuff are complicit in their violent behavior and make me sick.
But hey, as long as the meats cheap and good, who cares what crap the trash who serve it are up to, right?Will the the 53rd and 6th guys in turn resume Shendy’s pattern of abusive threatening of other street vendors?
